Technical Abstract

A control device includes a motion controller configured to control operation of a mechanical apparatus according to an operational command, a correction controller configured to correct the operation of the mechanical apparatus according to manipulational information outputted from a manipulating device, a memory part configured to store first operational information indicative of the operation of the mechanical apparatus, and correctional information indicative of the correction made by the correction controller, and a learning part configured to carry out machine learning using the first operational information and the correctional information corresponding to the first operational information. The motion controller controls the operation of the mechanical apparatus according to the operational command based on the command of the learning part, and the manipulating device outputs the manipulational information based on second operational information indicative of motion of the manipulating device.
